Views of T J Ryan
As to The Future
of Hawaiians
In a speech reoently delirered by
T J Ryan of Olaa at Waiakes in
Hilo ho ss in part as followi
Already Japaneaa hare commenc
ed to register and will rote at the
coming olootion For proof I refer
you to the list of registered voters
pouted in Hilo as required by law
It is true there is only one regis
tered thin year but it plainly shoves
what ia ooming I have no deBire
io confuse your minds with what
has happened in the past
ever our suoseis failure or regrets
may hare been in the paBt the
opportunity has vanished and we
havo only added to oiiV stock of
experience
But T feel it to be my duty io
point out to you as beBt I can tho
principal issues we are called upon
to deoide by ballot at presont and
the principal issuoB that will inevit
ably confront ua in the near fu
ture
I have nothing to nay againBt one
individual Jap nor againBt 100 nor
against 500 but against one hun
dred thousandin this little Terri
tory I enter a deoided protest
Who brought them here WaB
it the democrats No- Was it the
Hawaiian people No Was it tho
malihini from the mainland No
Who then brought them here in
such vast numbers Most assuredly
it was the cane planters corpora
tions And where do the cane
planters stand today on the issues
now bsfore the peoplet No -one
can deny thatthey stand with tbp
republican party In fapt theyl
make up the very vitals of the
republican party in tnis Territory
No doubt this Jap will be cor
dially greeted by and enrolled in
the young mens repnblioan olub
No donbthe will be given some
position in the publio service to
encourage others of his race At the
next election we may look to see
one hundred or two hundred morci
or less registered and in a short
time we may look to see Sakamoto
Road Supervisor Yamamoto Tana
ka Nakahara and others on tho1
polios force and so on indefinitely
ever increasing Then where will
you Hawaiians and Portuguese bp
who are now so foolish as to vote
the republican ticket under tho
threat of the present publio offioials
that you will be discharged from
work on the public roads and the
mean wages you now receivs not
exceeding one dollar per day will be
out off
I fanoy that not many years
hence I will see you applying to
Sakanoto for work on the road at
fifty dents a day and being refused
Although I have sympathy for you
now if then It see the Jap refuse
you work and even kick you off
the road I mBy be tempted to saj
It serves you right
Only a few days ago we were
all shooked by hearing the news
that one of our promising young
citizens born in Hawaii was foully
murdred on the street of Hono
lulu
The murder of young Mr Damon
flashed the horrible inquiry into
my mind Had the elder Mr Dam
on or he plantations in which no
deubt he is heavily interested auy
tfting to do with bringing this
murderous dsgo olement to Hawaii
If so his consojenoe alone would be
sufficient accuser
The uaerlfiee of this young man a
native of these Islands on the slUr
of Mammon must be a lesion to the
thoughtful citizen And for what
Suoart SuqarII SUGAR

V produced before the Mitohell Com-
mission Part 2 pages 208 to 211
Among other things Bhowing that
thaio poor Wrolohos tho produel of
Spanish tyranny wero brought
aotoea the American continent
guarded by plantation agents armed
with shot gunti Draw your bwu
conclusions and plaoa the blame
where it properly belongs
Our form of governmont must
survive througn intelligence it
can not exist through ignoranoo
It was built upon the foundation
that all governments derive their
just powers from the oonBont of the
governed The falsehood threats
and intimidation used by republisau
officials and their hirelings in tbie
looality is subversive of the spirit of
our institutions and contrary to the
written charter of our liberty
By the vote of every good citizen
who loves his country suoh politi
cal taotios should moot the rebuke
they deserve and those who reiort
to them
